Please go to
www.ifmar.org and read the regulations for offroad racing ... IFMAR uses a "Ifmar tree" system, basically no one goes to the final directly, and the TQ guy only start as 1st position on the "A semifinal" and all the driver list after qualies are divided on A and B groups to start racing from 1/xxxth subfinals up to the semifinals.
Usually top five on each group bump to upper group and on semifinals 5 from semifinal A and 5 from semifinal B goes to the FINAL race (1/16 and under are 20 minutes, 1/8 and 1/4's are 30 minutes and FINAL are 60 minutes race).
This year are 216 drivers and IFMAR authoriced to race 12 drivers on the FINAL race, so i dont know how they will seed the final group,
cya,
